Ashura never expected to have to deal directly with the fallout of his fight with Indra, but right now he's a thousand years out of his own time, with the chance to finally break the cycle of hatred the world is caught in and two young children bearing his and Indra's chakra imprints to care for. It's nothing he was ever prepared for, but with some luck and a little kindness, it might just turn out to be what the world needs.
